5.0 out of 5 stars We were considering hip replacement surgery , February 8, 2006

By	rZ (MS) - See all my reviews

February 8, 2006: We were considering hip replacement surgery for our 90 lb lab who was diagnosed with hip dysplaysia. Our vet recommended we try Cosequin DS first. We had tried similar products with no improvement and didn't expect this to work either. We were wrong. There was a marked difference in our lab's activity level within the first two weeks. Currently, he plays runs, and jumps with no pain. This product worked wonders for our dog.

UPDATE June 18, 2007: Cosequin did work wonders for our lab, but he also has Degenerative Myelopathy which was missed due to the hip dysplasia. We had never heard of this disease and didn't know the signs or symptoms to watch for. Please, if your dog is on a joint therapy product, search for Degenerative Myelopathy on the internet and familiarize yourself with the symptoms. As the disease progresses without treatment, your dog's chance for recovery and/or stabilization become less and less. The University of Florida has a lot of information on their website regarding this disease and a video depicting dogs in various stages of this disease.

4.0 out of 5 stars Seems to help - doesn't hurt!, September 26, 2005

By	Dog Lover "Love My Pets" (Idaho) - See all my reviews

Although I haven't found a lot of real scientific information out there about the effectiveness of supplements on arthritis treatments, I have two dogs and a cat taking Cosequin. I don't know how much it actually helps, but it doesn't hurt, and if there's even the slightest chance it will help my "kids", well, I'll take it. They're on prescription meds, too, but the idea behind Cosequin is that it will help lubricate their joints and preserve what they've got. They like the tablets, which is great since the tablets are the size of horse pills. The worst part is the start-up month, since you have to give extra. After that, it's not so bad cost-wise. And getting the big bottles here was cheaper than at my vet.

By	AZ-Bob "AZ-Bob" (AZ USA) - See all my reviews

Have had our two 60 and 70 lb dogs on this now for about 6 months, marked improvment in our older dog. his left rear leg shaking has improved a great deal, much more like his old self. running and playing with the younder one. (and us) I recommend. as the other review says, does not hurt. and we think helps.
